Always fresh and delicious seafood. The deviled crab are to die for. The salmon filets are my husband’s favorite.

The restaurant was closed due to COVID so this review is for the Fish Market. I am a native of Savannah and I have eaten fresh fish and shrimp many times from Russo's. This time it was really bad. I purchased a container of shrimp salad and a container of potato salad to take back to our hotel for lunch. I placed it in my insulated cooler in the car. Less that 20 minutes later I prepared my lunch and something was very wrong with both the shrimp and potato salads. It tasted like vinegar or something very sour. Dang, $26 for NOTHING edible. I have eaten many pounds of shrimp salad and I have never had something that tasted this bad.

The Restaurant needs more parking spaces. Parking is tight. It's a little difficult getting back on the main street.

Great, always fresh seafood and great people!

Very good

Russo's is the bestFor fresh seafood

good service and friendly atmosphere

When I pre-ordered on Dec 21st I was told I needed to pre-pay as they weren't letting anyone in the store because they had a covid exposure. They said I would drive through and my order would be brought to my car. Not so. I arrived on the 24th to pick up my order. multiple people waiting outside, and multiple people waiting in the store to order. Two employees without masks. One was the young man who brought my or.der out to me (I had to get out of my car to wait). When I asked why he was not wearing a mask, he said he was told he didn't need to wear one.

After my last trip a year ago I decided to try fresh market first. It was total disappointment. They had only previously frozen fish. No local fish. Went back to Russo’s. Great selection and surprisingly few people on December 23. I got flounder, whiting and trout, filleted. All were excellent. You get what you pay for. They may be expensive, but they have super fresh local fish.

A nice, fresh variety of seafood from a Savannah institution.
